IIFL Finance faces ₹475.56 Crore tax demand; company to appeal
IIFL Finance received tax assessment orders raising a demand of ₹475.56 crore for the period April 2018 to February 2025. The company believes it has discharged its tax liabilities and will appeal the orders, expecting no material financial impact.
Although the company expects no material impact and plans to appeal, a tax demand of this magnitude can still have a medium-term impact on financial operations and investor sentiment.
The company has received a significant tax demand, which is a negative development.
IIFL Finance Limited has received tax assessment orders from the Joint Commissioner of Income Tax (OSD), Central Circle – 4(4), Mumbai. The orders, dated May 12, 2026, pertain to the block period from April 1, 2018, to February 3, 2025, and raise a tax demand of ₹475.56 crore under Section 158BC(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
The company stated that it believes it has discharged all applicable tax liabilities and possesses adequate grounds to contest the demand. IIFL Finance does not anticipate any material impact on its financials or operations as a result of these orders. The company is currently evaluating its options and intends to pursue appeals against the assessment orders under applicable laws.
